Executive Summary
The Obama Presidential Center is framed as a forward-looking institution designed to inspire civic engagement, rather than a traditional monument to a past presidency.
It pioneers a new model for presidential centers by being the first to have a fully digitized archive, making all records available online while using its physical campus for community-focused amenities.
Located in an urban park in Chicago, the center is deeply integrated with the community, featuring a public library branch, an athletic center, and newly created public green space.
The center's narrative begins with the Declaration of Independence, contextualizing the Obama presidency within the long, non-linear 'arc' of American history and progress.
